FOR THE SUN. MR. EDITOR, S. As your t i me must be much better employed, in Coliecting interesting and authentic intelligence un matters of Natiorial simportatice, than in entering irno any ,controversy with your.competitors, I save you the trouble of taking any further notice., unless you thin:: proper, of the attack upon TH E Su N which appears this day in the chief organ. of " All the Talents." You are accused of " vihtyii.g theme-' Mory of Mr. Fox ;" but tht4..author of this charge is much more severe upon the memory of Mr. Fox than you are, in bringing tot ward his, principles, for no apparent reason than that of, vilriying a chara.: . - ter which it is for the interest of the country to hold in resped and-admiration. The Prince of Wales has been accused in the quarter alluded to, of having pronounced an unquali fi ed approbation of the poti tical principles, of Mr. Fox, and of saying, that he should anxiously endeavour to impress those prlnci . pies upon the heart of his illustrious offspring.— You.very properly animadvert on the inconsistency that mailed the , public condo& of Mr. Fox, but his officious adtooate dogs not think proper to enter into an explanation' of Mr. Foes- prinCiples, or endeavour to reconcile his inconsistencies;, and contents him self with accusing you of having " vilifi. d his memo . - ty." Theadvircate Says, that " the people of Eng land feel the truth of the noble eulogmin assed on his character by . t he person who, next to his Majesty, has the highest interest in t he success of the doctrines 'which it• was the object . of his-political Tile AttOticul cate." But, Mr. Editor, it is inipossiole that the people of England should feel the truth' of what they hate 'only, heard through the very uncertain medium ot au Opposition Journal; .and the priN:iples of Mr. Fox were so vai ions and . so opposite, that it is very -till ficoll indeed, to suppose that his Royal. Highness, whose und,:xstandhig is known to be. excellent, would have otomittedlninselt so tar as to expiess the sentiment upon the subjed $o indecently im puted to him ; a.,.1 indeed, Mr. Editor, .the only person whr oo this occasion has " vilified the me , in;rry of Mr. Fox" is tits otlicious advocate. .As you v,,ry justly onset ve, Mr. - Fox ,:tone time held the Ni;ice of Parliaoteni e as every thing, and that ot the Pcoi,le as nothing and at - auotner declared that the voice ot the People was every thing, and that ParltaMent were oA,r to listen and oncy. From such versatility and total contradict wh i could be ected, but that it he had been ative,and in- good health, he might have asserted 'both opinions again and again, acc-rd ti g to the' .suggestioos of his own interest, or mat O his party But alter the declktra lion'of Mi..

What those poems were it is difficult to dis.c.itrer ;- but it must be admitted that they are very appropriate to some po pular works of the precut day. A CONSTANT READER.

It• is said that ,endeavours_ are making to trace the Original source of this Address,, which, we understand, first appeared in a'Scoich Newspaper.

L4ll .RETOR T. COURT OF ctimsrc Au.q. 21. E%-tARTE RA WTON AND MoliEltALL, MAT.; TER OF BRICKWoOD ANb. CO! The LOlll3O CHANCEI+OR delivered . his- opinion on tie case of the petitioners: • • • "- Looking. at the petition, two questions arise ; tie first, as to whether I should order the short bills to be delivered up to the petitioners; =el .the next, at to the jurisdiction of the Court in this.matter.— The first question turns simply upon : the fa-Os dis• cbsed in the case. It appeals that the petiti4ners, having received about 22,0004 of the public money, repined it to the Bankrupts. In addition to this . caih remittance, 21,0001. in short .trill, was also re., mated. By short bills, I understar , d bills 'entered short, and credit not given for them, as (or so • much, money, received. Of theie remittances, 22.0001. and something more, w:4" made payable to the order of the 6immiSsioners of EXcise. .Further acceptances were . made, some for a valuable consi deration, and others not; aillotinting , in the wh.le of the acceptances by the Bankrupts to. 26,0001." [Mr..MONTAGUE mentioned here that the peti tioueis had just paid to the Assignees of the bank 7. rupis the amount of those.acCeptatices which were not for a valuable consideration.] " That,"/ said the Lord Chancellor, " clears the question still' more. I think the bankrnpts could not be entitled • .to consider those bills as part of their elfets fur which no credit had been given. Trey might have, it is true,• a lien upon the'short b)11,1, so tar as nut to give them.up till' accounts were settled, or to cir cutustances of that nature. . As lb the property to those short bills, if the bankrupts had nut ill's pro petty, the Assignees cannot . .,ave it ,•' the ba .kruptcy cannot giye them any right above the bankrupts.--- I do not go into the.: powers of a writ of exi eta, but it is gen= that a material difference is produced in the nature of 'the crest ion, where the acceptances; were,. for money provable to have been speciti, ally paid for the purpose of Governmeht. • But if the ti tenti can be made available to take the short bills ow of the hands of the 'Assignees, I see no inju,tice to the other creditOis, in the ihspas.ll wlitci the Crown has consented torn eke of them. I will not require the petitioners to . amend their petitiOn, as it would have no other etfed than to bring us here the day after to-morrow again. As• to the question of jurisdiction, I have considered it as much as I could, and I think I have jurisdiction in tlii4 matter. I thetelore older tie shtirt bills to be delivered up to the petitioners." • In a ease ex-pane Cie, his Lordship deferred -making a decree, as he wished to pen it with his own hand.

That he visited at' I.er father's house before he paid her any partictilar attenton. That . he began to pay his addresses to her in a way that she considered honourable, and that it was un derstood both in his family and her father's, that he contemplated a marriage with her. 'The Lady 'said she was 31 years' of age, aud'Mr. Balderston Was about 34. He father was far advanced in life, he was 67-years of age. Site kept his house, having lost her mother tweive years ago.

His visits then k:egan, as , generally happeas in similar cases, to 'be leSs frequent. On ou occasion he called, said nothing about the marriage,? but pro mised to call again.
